## Overview Windows 1903 reach [end of life](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-gb/lifecycle/products/windows-server) on 08/12/2020. According to our [support policy](https://docs.gitlab.com/runner/install/windows.html#windows-version-support-policy) we should be able to remove support for this since it's no longer maintained by Microsoft. ## Proposal 1. Support from it inside of GitLab Runner code base, just like we did in https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-runner/-/merge_requests/2033 - Running tests - Publishing images - Docker executor version check 1. Remove infrastructure around it 1. Remove VM image publishing which is used for CI https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/ci-cd/shared-runners/images/gcp/windows-containers 1. Remove autoscaler installation in https://ops.gitlab.net/gitlab-com/gl-infra/ci-infrastructure-windows/-/blob/c065a7aa04c958ffe941c0a80fbd4dba592e0c1a/ansible/group_vars/gcp_role_runner_manager.yml#L44-56 1. Unregister the runners from the `gitlab-org/gitlab-runner` Settings > CI/Cd > runners section
